The New York YANKEES start their 2024 season today. They start the season with their best pitcher, Gerrit Cole, on the DL (disabled list) and their starting third baseman, DJ LeMahieu also on the DL. It is estimated that Cole will be out of action for about two months, and LeMahieu out for anywhere from two weeks to two months. There are also several other players who will start the season on the DL.
The ultimate goal for the YANKEES is to win the World Series. There are many thresholds that must be met just to get to the World Series. Every threshold is met in only one way, WINS. Wins is the only stat that determines the best players and the best teams in baseball. Over the 162 game season the teams who win their division will move on to the playoffs, and the next teams in each league with the most wins will also go on to the playoffs. The playoffs then start and only the teams that WIN each round move forward towards the World Series.
Any team that loses any round is finished for the season. Only WINS determines which teams move forward, until only one team in each league is left, and they will be the two teams who will meet in the World Series to determine which team and their players are the best in baseball. No players individual stats mean a thing on which players and teams reach the World Series. Learn this fans, if you haven't already or if you are new to baseball, only WINS determines which players are and which team is the World Champions of baseball, by winning the World Series.
The YANKEES have upgraded their lineup and roster significantly by adding Juan Soto, Alex Verdugo, and Marcus Stroman to the team for the 2024 season. Anthony Volpe will be in his second season and still on the improve. Austin Wells, a promising youngster, has been added to the catching ranks. The YANKEES, will be looking for help from several young pitchers until their 'ace' Cole returns to the starting rotation.

Rodon goes 6 1/3 allowing 2 runs in a very good effort. Leaves game leading 8-2.
Yankees take this series with Houston with a 9-4 win. Go for sweep tomorrow.
Final. Yankees win 9-4. Another laugher. Rodon goes 6 1/3 innings giving 2 runs on 7 hits and 0 walks, earning the win. Ferguson 2/3 scoreless innings, Gonzalez 2/3 inning allowing 1 run, Hamilton the final 1 1/3 innings also giving up a run. Offense, alive again with Soto leading the way, going 3-5 and 5 rbi's. Judge also 3-5 and 3 rbi's. Stanton the other rbi. Yanks take series and will play for a series sweep tomorrow.
Stroman, who has been struggling the last couple of games starts tomorrow. Bounce back?
Unusual 5pm start time this evening. Chance for Yankees to sweep two series in a row.

Stroman needs to give us a good start. Need the lineup to keep the runs coming. Good series for the Yankees so far on all aspects.
Rinse and repeat, same lineup as last nights.
Lets go Yankees.
Stroman outdid the two pitchers who started for the Yankees in this series. They each allowed a run on a solo HR in their game they pitched. Stroman allowed 2 HR's and 3 runs. Stroman is starting to be a problem.
Yanks down 3-2 after three. Volpe two run home run in third tightens game. Stroman in jams in second and third innings and gets out of them both. He hasn't had good inning yet. In trouble every inning.
Stroman guts out 5 2/3 innings, but leaves game with Yankees in a 4-2 hole.
Yanks down 4-2 after 6.
Yankees lose a tough one. Down 3-0 before coming to bat, Yanks go down 4-3. Stroman gave up all 4 Astro runs.
Final. Yankees lose 4-3. Stroman with a horrid first inning giving up 3 runs and then another 1 run in the 5th for the loss. He was in trouble several times but got away with when it mattered most big outs to at least give the Yankees a chance. Yankee runs on a Volpe 2 run home run and a Judge solo home run. Bullpen threw 3 1/3 scoreless innings and gave the lineup a chance. You can' t win them all.
Next up, Tampa visits Stadium for three game weekend series. Schmidt, Cortes, and Gil starting for Yanks. Take another series and then a road trip.
Well the Yanks took 2 of 3 in this series and swept them in Houston 4 game series. 6 of 7 is not bad, and winning 3 game series consistently gets you to the playoffs. Do it again this weekend.
Yanks23245, Yankees are playing in Tampa this weekend. Everything you said is right on except for where the games will be played. Winning the series is what matters.

Can Schmidt finish six innings? with the lead? a quality start? Lets go Yankees.
Hal Jenks, thanks for the correction of my screwup. I was half asleep. Sorry fans.
Joe Biden is a DEAD MAN WALKING. Joe Biden is HAMAS. I can't say here what I really want to say about this CRIMINAL.
Yanks up 1-0 after 4.
Schmidt has gone six innings and leads 1-0. His best start of the season.
Rizzo HR in 9th for tack on insurance run. 2-0 Yanks with Ray coming to bat in the 9th.
Theeeeeeeeeeeeeee Yankeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees Winnnnnnnnnnn 2-0.
Final. Yankees win 2-0. Big game from Schmidt, likely the best of his career. Went 6 2/3 shoutout innings, 0 runs, 5 hits, 2 walks, and 6 K's to earn the win. Burdi 1/3 inning and a hold. Weaver 1 inning and a hold. Holmes 1 inning, a nail biting 1 inning, allowing a single and 2 walks loading the bases, but did strike out all 3 outs he got throwing 34 pitches to earn another save.
Nice win, got scary in the 9th, but Holmes created his own mess then cleaned it up himself.
Forgot. Yankees 2 runs, all Rizzo, a 2 out rbi single when it mattered most, and a solo home run in the 9th for a small cushion.
Always nice to win first game of a series. Nice game by Schmidt.
Cortes starts tomorrow. 4 o'clock game time.
Holmes problem yesterday was too much rest. He hadn't pitched in five days. Ball was really moving. Only one pitch was hit, and it was a weak opposite field hit. Walked two and struck out three batters. He did throw 34 pitches and will not be available today I would think, but should be fine Sunday if needed.
Warren Hammond, I agree and know what you mean. Biden, in his life, may have done more harm to civilization, than any other American citizen born and raised in the United State of America.
Take this series today, keep moving forward. Winning is everything.

Six lefty bats for Yankees today as Stanton and Torres sits, and Judge DH. Berti in five hole.
Cortes getting hit hard. Yankees trail 4-2 after three.
Yanks go down 7-2 after 7 as Rays score 3 in 7th.
Final. Yankees lose 7-2. Cortes went 5 1/3 innings giving up 4 runs and taking the loss. Santana worked an inning an gave up e runs. Hamilton 2/3 and Tonkin 1 inning of scoreless ball. Only Yankee offense was a 2 rbi single from Volpe who had 3 hits today. Yankee lineup was dull, but for Volpe. Rubber game tomorrow.
1/10th of an inch. If Soto's flyout in the 7th is 1/10th inch lower off his bat, the ball likely would have been a 3 run home run and given the Yankees a 5-4 lead at the time. Changes the whole ballgame.

Cabrera and Verdugo day off. Gil to keep his great pitching going? Why not?
Yanks up 4-0 after 4.
Gil goes six shutout innings and leaves game up 6-0. Sweet.
Oh my god. Ferguson comes in for the seventh inning, gets one out and gives up four runs. A laugher just turned into a 6-4 game. And on mothers day. What a shame.
After Rays score 5 in the 7th to cut Yankees to 6-5, Yankees get 3 run HR and solo HR from Trevino and take 10-5 lead. It's only over if you give up. Tampa did not give up. And the Yankees are not giving up. Baseball, the America's pastime and greatest sport.
Theeeeeeeeeeeeeee Yankeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees Winnnnnnnnnnnnn. 10-6.
Happy Mothers Day!
Final. Yankees win 10-6. It was easy, then it wasn't, then it was. Gil went six very strong scoreless in command innings for the win. But the bullpen had a problem. Ferguson in the 7th, pitched 1/3 of an inning and gave up 4 runs, HORRID. Burdi came in, pitched 0 innings and gave up a run, HORRID, score now 6-5 and bases loaded with Rays. Weaver come in for 1 2/3 innings of shutout ball and earns a big big hold. Hamilton pitches the 9th and allows 1 run, no save. But Yankees win 10-6. Offense, alive, Judge sac fly rbi after Volpe lead off triple in first inning. 1-0.
Jamal HR 2-0 in 3rd inning. Trevino 2 run HR 4-0 4th inning. Judge 2 run HR 6-0 6th inning. After bullpen give up 5 runs, Yanks lead 6-5 after 7 innings. Torres 3 run HR and Trevino another sole HR 10-5 Yankees 8th inning. Big bats with big home runs for the win, in a game the bullpen failed. Yankees do take series.
Off day tomorrow, then three game series in Minnesota with the Twinkies.
As of now Rodon, Stroman, and Schmidt listed to start three game series in Minnesota.
Over 100,000 great Americans attended the President Trump rally on the beach at Wildwood NJ over the weekend. We vote for Trump and we can make America great again, we don't, we can kiss America good-bye.
Trump trial in NYC the criminal prosecutors put on stand their key witness a factually documented perjurer. Welcome to the world of corrupt lying progressive liberal democrats.
Ben, a convicted perjurer who worked as Don's confidant to bury Trump's lies and deception for a decade and who brought with him an audio tape of he and crooked Don discussing the porn star dealings. People may lie, recorded audio does not.
If you do the crime, you do the time.
Ben, the prosecutors could put Biden on the stand as their key witness, or anyone in the joe-bama/commie MALADY administration, and you would have exactly the same witness as you described, "a factually documented perjurer". And yes, "welcome to the world of corrupt lying progressive liberal democrats".
Here is a story about Clayton Beeter at AAA right now. He likely may be the next up rotation starter at the MLB level when needed.
In six starts at Triple-A, Beeter has posted a 3-1 record with a 2.89 ERA. Across 28 innings, Beeter has held opponents to 17 hits, walking 16 while striking out 41. He has also permitted only one home run, notching a 1.69 ERA thus far in two May starts.
Beeter’s workload included a showdown against Gallo’s Rochester Red Wings on Wednesday in Moosic, Pa. Beeter struck out Gallo twice (once swinging and once looking), while Gallo reached base once on an error.
“I know I have good stuff,” Beeter said. “It’s just kind of getting into the mindset of believing that my stuff is going to play, even in the [strike] zone. It just allows me to go out there and attack. Obviously, when I do that, I end up having good results.”
MLB Pipeline’s writeup on Beeter notes that he shows flashes of plus pitches. His best offering is an 82-86 mph slider with two-plane depth that hitters can’t barrel or lay off. His fastball sits 92-94 mph and peaks at 97, with more carry up in the zone than true life.
Beeter also features a curveball and a changeup, though it has been suggested that he could find success out of the bullpen by primarily focusing on the fastball/slider combination.
“His fastball is really good,” catcher Jose Trevino said this spring. “I think his offspeed pitches are really good. He gets to good locations. Just having conversations with him, he’s a smart kid. He understands what his arsenal is and what he can do with it.”
Harvey, Biden didn't have an unprotected, extra marital affair with a porn star
Biden didn't talk about hush money payments on audio tape with Michael Cohen.
Biden didn't sign a hush money check .
Biden didn't falsifying business records to conceal the payment.
That lousy, fat toad Trump did. It is why he is sitting in court like the crooked sleaze he is the last few weeks.
The world of corrupt lying progressive liberal democrats raises its head.
1. What a person did in their private life as a private citizen means little. What they accomplished for the American people as a politician out weighs their private citizen life 10 to 1.
2.Trump has committed no crime. He is being targeted by leftwing cabal of criminals which has infested the democrat party. Liberals destroy and conservatives build.
3.Just say thank you President Trump.
Grosner, there is no crime. Presently, we have an entire administration of criminals with real crimes.
An old saying to the diehard democrat voters. Forget about the ignorant progressive, liberal, and radical left-wing voters. They fall into the brain-dead group.
""" There are none so blind as those who will not see """
VOTE CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICAN AND TAKE BACK OUR COUNTRY!!!
With the off day everyone should be available and ready to go. Play one game at a time, produce when it matters most, and that is what will build the teams win total. WINS, the magic word.
Biden giving one of his speeches today, acknowledges that "all the people" in the front row from his administration as "murderers' row". He got that right. They are killing and bankrupting Americans every day. A despicable man, liar, criminal, corrupt, and scum.
Linda Rice, I thought that was hilarious Biden in his next sentence also said that they were the people responsible for what is happening in his administration. Dumb leading the dumber while supported and followed by the dumbest.
Personally, I really want to win the first game of any series. For me, it is just a mental thing.
Jason, Biden credits and respects his colleagues and they respect him like normal people.
Most of Trump's cabinet quit, have called him unfit for office, or where subject to ethnic attacks by Trump...like "China loving Elaine "coco" Chao".

Will the good Rodon show up tonight? I do like this left handed lineup. Keep hitting and producing when it counts.
Anonymous, also known as no name, you are right, garbage knows garbage. You add up all the garbage in the joe-bama/commie MALDY administration and you could fill one hell of a gigantic hole. Then you could set a match to it and help clean up the cesspool of democrat despair.
Yanks up 3-1 after 3.
Yankees on top thru six innings 5-1. Rodon goes all six innings allowing one run, on a home run to the leadoff batter and that was all.
Yankees win 5-1. Good start by Rodon for the win.
Final. Yankees win 5-1. Rodon six innings for the win 1 run 6 hits. Hamilton two innings 1 hit. Holmes one inning 1,2,3 on six pitches. Stanton solo HR. Volpe rbi double, Cavrera rbi single, Verdugo 2 rbi double. Easy peasy. Take first game of series.
A nice peaceful no drama 5-1 win tonight.
Stroman tomorrow for Yanks. He hasn't been awful, but he needs to do better than he has.
criminal biden and hero Trump supposedly agree to two debates.
If the Yankee bats score several runs then Stroman can allow four or five. One hand washes the other when things are going good.
Joe Biden is a good man. For China.
Rodon last night pitched like a top of the rotation starter. The changeup he showed last night was very impressive and could be a really good pitch for him.
What is amazing is that even the best pitchers over the history of baseball can have an awful start occasionally, only the bad starts were few and far between.

Funny, and cute, but I think there is more of a chance at holding the debate over Bidens grave.
Yanks score 1 run in each of first three innings for a 3-0 lead, but haven't been able to drop the hammer for a big lead.
Yanks up 3-0 after 4.
Yankees win a tack-on run in 7th for a 4-0 lead thru 7.
Final. Yankees win 4-0. Stroman 6 scoreless innings for the win. Weaver a scoreless 7th and 8th innings, and Ferguson a scoreless 9th. Judge 4-4 a solo HR, 3 doubles, and walk, 2 rbi's. Volpe sacfly rbi and Stanton rbi single. That was it. Similar to last night. Twins bats non existent.
Yankees take series and can sweep it with a win in tomorrows get away game.
Two well pitched wins in a row. When you give up one in 18 innings over two games, you usually don't lose.
Cortes tomorrow. What are the chances he matches either Rodon or Stroman in games one and two?
Rodon gave up one run and Stroman no runs, each going six innings.

Theeeeeeeeeeeeee Yankeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees Winnnnnnnnnnn, 5-0, sweep Twins.
Final. Yankees win 5-0. Schmidt goes 8 shutout innings, improving on his last start, which was his best game ever. Schmidt allowed just 3 hits, 0 walks, and struck out 8. Gonzalez close out game with a 1,2,3 ninth. Volpe led off game with HR. Torres rbi double, Rizzo rbi ground out, Wells rbi single, Verdugo rbi sacfly. Yankees sweep series and pitching staff allows one run over 27 innings of total dominance. Who's next?
What a series. The twins are in a poor division, but they are a winning team and have been playing well, until the Yankees came into town.
Yankees head home and host the White Sox for a three game weekend series. Cortes, Gil, and Rodon. No letdowns and no letups. One game at a time, one series at a time, wins are all that counts.
Take another series this weekend and keep producing when it counts. Soto slumping and not producing. Judge red hot and hitting ball hard.
The joe-bama/commie MALADY administration's army of terrorist criminal illegal aliens who have entered America over the past 3+ years under their time in office are spread all across the country. They are committing crimes every day and destroying the country. This is what you get when you vote for progressive liberal democrats who only care about themselves, destroying America and you. Remember, Afghanistan, Ukraine, Israel, that is where America is being led by this criminal and corrupt administration.
This may be crazy, but I have a feeling the Yankees can and will be even better than they are now as we get into the summer. Then peak as they reach the playoffs.
Lets start this series off on the right foot. Another win. And then a series win,
1-1 after 3.
Yanks up 4-1 after 4.
Nice game from Cortes. Goes seven innings allowing one run and leaves leading 4-1.
Theeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Yankeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees Winnnnnnnnnnn 4-2.
Just good enough, 4-2 win, no wasted runs. Cortes goes 7 innings. Do it again tomorrow.
Final. Yankees win 4-2. Cortes goes 7 innings allowing 1 run 5 hits 1 walk and 6 K's for the win.
Hamilton goes 1/3 inning, had nothing, giving up 1 run 3 hits leaving with runners on 2nd and 3rd with one out. Ferguson comes in, gets a K and a fly out for a big hold. Holmes for the 9th and earns his 13th save. Judge solo HR. Stanton rbi double and solo HR, Verdugo rbi double and that was the ballgame.
It seems to me that Gil pitching after Cortes is a nice advantage for him. After the opposing teams see all of Cortes' antics and junk he throws from the left side, Gil with his hard stuff coming from the right side is a major different look.

Interesting, a righthanded lineup against a righthanded pitcher. Lets win another game.
LeMahieu is very close to coming back to lineup. Has had a couple of AA rehab games, playing the field and hitting. Just will give the team more infield flexibility which also makes for a better bat off the bench.
Gil is pitching one hell of a game today.
Yanks win 6-1. Take another series. Gil brilliant going six innings allowing 1 cheapo run in first inning and, get this, of the 18 outs he recorded, 14 were by strike outs.
Final. Yankees win 6-1 in another no drama game. Gil with yet another dominant outing. Six innings, 1 run, 5 hits, and 14 K's. Burdi in the 7th and 8th for scoreless innings, and Sanchez in for a scoreless 9th. Offensively, Soto comes out of his slump, bigtime, going 4-4 and a walk, and 3 rbis on a rbi single and 2 solo home runs. Stanton a rbi double and solo home run, and Trevino a solo home run for all the runs. Yanks win this series and will play for another series sweep tomorrow.
Now for tomorrow the White Sox will go back to seeing another lefthanded pitcher. This time one much different than Cortes who they faced in game one. Rodon is a harder thrower with a sharper slider. Another different look for them to swing at. Keep it going Carlos.
It looks as if it's time for another public service warning. When a player or team is playing very bad, neither are as bad as they look. When a player or team is playing very well, neither are as good as they look.
Right no the Yankees are playing very well, so take all the wins with a grain of salt. There will be downs ahead, and ups ahead. When the season is over the average of all the ups and downs will determine which players and teams go to the playoffs. Wins will determine which players and teams go to the playoff and beyond. Wins are the only thing that matters.
Limit the downs and maximize the ups. Never give up, never stop trying.
Finally, smile and be happy, ride the wave.
Don't forget the brooms when you come to the Stadium tomorrow guys.

Final. Yankees win 7-2. Rodon goes six innings giving up 2 runs and earns the win. Tonkin goes 2 1/3 scoreless and Holmes 2/3 scoreless. Yankee runs, Trevino 2 rbi single, Berti 3 run HR and Judge 2 run HR. That was the ballgame. Another series sweep. The Yankees keep rolling along.
Next series for Yankees is with Seattle, a four game series, Monday thru Thursday. Stroman, Schmidt, Cortes, Gil.

Again, righthanded lineup against righthanded pitcher. It worked last time.
Managers in the past have won games when picking the lineup out of hat. Producing when it matters most is more important than who bats in what spot in the lineup.
Yanks up 2-0 after 3.
Yankees leading 3-0 thru six innings.
Holmes in for the ninth with Yanks up 4-1. Holmes out in the ninth after giving up 4 run on 4 hits and 2 walks leaving Yanks down 5-4. Holmes poor effort took a win away from Stroman.
Yankees go down 5-4 giving the game away which should have been an easy win. Yankee closer Holmes gives it all away giving up 4 runs in the 9th inning blowing a 4-1 Yankee lead all by himself.
Horrid start to this series. Up 4-1 in 9th inning, Mariners score 4 runs off of Clay Holmes. Yanks lose a game they should have won 5-4.
Final. Yanks lose 5-4. A disastrous loss after leading 4-1 thru eight innings. Stroman went 7 1/3 innings allowing 1 run on 3 hits. Weaver pitched 2/3 inning scoreless and closing out the 8th inning. Holmes had a nightmare game and blew the game because he did not produce when it mattered, walked 2 batters and gave up 4 hits and 4 runs to lose the game 5-4. Dreadful loss, but remember, you can't win them all, and some losses will hurt big time. This game was one of those. Throw in the fact that the Yankees also gave away multiple scoring opportunities by hitting into three double plays with runners in scoring position.
I need help, I am struggling with tonites loss. It really bothers me to lose a game like this.
The Yankee need to make up for tonight's loss with vengeance the rest of this series.
Forget about tonight. It's a loss, so what.
Last night shows how one bad inning can cost a team a game. It's over, win streak is over. make up for it today and the rest of the week.

Final. Yankees lose 6-3. Schmidt struggled through five innings, only gave up 2 runs, but it was enough to earn the loss since the offense didn't score any runs for him. Santana gave up 2 runs and Burdi gave up 1. Yankee offense was a 3 run home run from Torres. Two straight losses now, after seven straight wins.

Yanks win it tonight 7-3. Need a win tomorrow to split this four game series.
Yanks win 7-3. Kahnle pitches a 1,2,3 inning in his first MLB appearance in a long time.
Final. Yankees win 7-3. Four home runs carry the day. Soto two home runs, a solo shot and a 2 run blast. Judge a 2 run homer, and Verdugo a 2 run homer for all the Yankee runs. Cortes throws 97 pitches but grinded out five scoreless innings for the win. Kahnle worked a scoreless inning, Tonkin gave up 2 runs in 1 1/3 innings, Weaver 1 run in 1 2/3 innings. Yankees still down 2 games to 1 in series with final game tomorrow. Yanks need a win to split series.

A win to save the series, a win to build another streak.
Trump to visit and campaign in South Bronx today. This is why the dredges known as progressives, liberals, and democrats are trying to destroy him. Trump goes where no man has gone before. Trump for America, for the people, for you and me.
Yanks up 1-0 after 2.
Gil does it again, a brilliant dominant effort. 6 1/3 innings of shutout ball and leaves leading 2-0. Gave up one hit, which could easily have been scored an error.
Yanks do it. Even series with 5-0 win. Don't forget, they gave away the first game.
Final. Yankees win 5-0. Split series. Gil magnificent again. Goes 6 1/3 innings, 0 runs, 1 hit, and earns the win. Gonzalez 1 shutout inning, Burdi 1/3 shutout inning, Holmes 1 1/3 shutout innings and earn a save. Offense, Judge and Stanton solo home runs, Soto rbi single, Rizzo and Verdugo rbi sac flies. Gil, unquestionably the 'ace' of the team until Cole comes back and shows he is the 'ace'. Something for him to shot for.
Nice win today. Gil is something else. When he throws strikes, he makes hitters look bad.
After a fine ten game homestand where the Yankees went 7-3, the teams heads west for a nine game in ten days trip to California. Three games in San Diego with the Padres, three games with the LA Angels in Anaheim, and three games in San Francisco with the Giants. Goal, win all three series. Smile and be happy.
Rodon, Stroman, and Schmidt starters in San Diego.
What a great rally in the Bronx last night. Thousands of people waking up to the reality that Trump will help them in stead of spitting on them as the liberal democrats have done forever and are doing to this day. Trumps message to the people was upbeat and positive. Can you imagine if he wins New York? Anything is possible, but I think there are just too many very ignorant people and illegal criminal aliens who vote illegally in New York. God forbid anyone will do something about it. This is the the liberal democrat base of corruption.

Take first game of series, start road trip with a win. Lets go Yankees.
Yankees clobbering Hugh Garbish. Lead 7-0 after four innings. Home runs from Soto, Judge, Stanton, and Torres so far.
Yankees rock and roll to start road trip, as they pummel the Padres and Darvish for an 8-0 win. Darvish's head was on a swivel as the Yankee bats made contact. Some real hard hit balls by Yankee lineup. All Darvish could do is look to see where each hit would land. Four of them landed over 400 feet away and were home runs.
Fun game to watch tonight. Four Yankee home runs, a laugher, and another win.
Final. Yankees win 8-0. Rodon six scoreless innings and in command for the win. Santana a scoreless 7th and 8th innings. Gomez a scoreless 9th with 3 K's. Soto a 2 run HR. Judge a sac fly rbi and a solo HR. Stanton a 2 run HR and Torres a solo HR. Lets go Yankees.
It almost felt like the Yanks were taking batting practice tonight. Today was good, but there will be days of bad. Normally 60% good will get a team into the playoffs.
Hope the Yankee fireworks continue tonight in San Diego.
Verdugo is having one of the best slightly above league average seasons a player can have. His OPS+ is just 108 but it seems like every game he has a big at bat and drives in an important run.
Nelson Muntz, you appear to be a stat fraud. However, if you are capable of understanding, the WIN METHOD clearly explains what you are unable to understand about Verdugo.
The banner across the WIN METHOD page says it all -- EXCELLENCE AND DESIRE ARE NOT SKILLS THEY ARE ARE ATTITUDES -- unfortunately stat frauds do not have the intelligence to understand the fact.
I remember Muntz from the nyyforum. A negative outlook, gripes a lot. In other words, a loser.

Hit and pitch and win, take series. That is the formula.
Cease is a hard thrower. Outside pitch, go to opposite field, inside pitch, pull it. Do damage. Lets go Yankees.
Yanks lead 4-0 thru four.
Stroman goes a solid six shutout innings and leaves with a 4-0 lead.
Theeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Yankeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees Winnnnnnnnnnn 4-1.
Final. Yankees win 4-1. Stroman six innings, 0 runs, 3 hits, 1 walk for the win. Weaver two innings, 1 run, 1 hit, 2 walks. Holmes one inning, 1,2,3 for the save. Judge 2 run HR. Rizzo rbi single, Torres rbi sac fly. Yanks win series with Padres and have a chance to sweep series tomorrow.

Remember guys, no letup, you are playing for a series sweep. Hit and pitch when it matters most.
The Yankee lineups have been pretty much very consistent so far this season. The reward has been one of the best records in MLB. Conclusion, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
I wonder what influence Cole has on the pitching staff this season while he has been inactive. I seem to always see him talking to them, showing them grips of the baseball, and are angles when throwing. If anything has made them each better, not only physically throwing but also in mental attitude when pitching.
Scoreless thru three.
0-0 after 5.
Final. Yankees lose 5-2. Schmidt takes the loss as Torres opens the flood gates with an error as he nonchalanted an easy ground ball to open the Padre sixth inning that led to four runs. Schmidt went 5+ innings giving up 2 runs, 1 earned, 3 hits, 3 walks. Gonzalez 2/3 inning giving up 2 runs. Santana 1/3 inning 0 runs. Ferguson 1/3 inning 1 run, and finally Tonkin 1 2/3 inning 0 runs. Yankee runs Soto rbi double and Verdugo solo HR. Didn't sweep, but won the series. Off day for Yankees on Memorial Day tomorrow.
A moment of silence as we remember and honor all those who have served our nation. Thank you all for your service and for far too many, your lives.
Always hate to lose, but losing is part of the game. Move on and win the next series with the Angels.
REMEMBER >>> MEMORIAL DAY >>> all those who served in the USA military and their families for their sacrifices and their lives. GOD BLESS THEM ALL AND GOD BLESS AMERICA.
Wipe out the left leaning wing in America and MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN.
Kind of nice not having a Yankee game today. More quality time with the family, talking, playing games, eating peacefully together. No distractions. I volunteer the Yankees to request not playing on Memorial Day, the Fourth of July, and Labor Day.
Back in action tomorrow. A three game series with the Angels, all night games. Cortes, Gil, and Rodon start for the Yankees. Take another series and keep moving forward.
LeMahieu supposed to be activated for this series. Play him at second base. Give Torres some time off, that will likely help the time somewhat.
Trump case in NYC closing arguments today. No question a guilty verdict will be decision. District Attorney Bragg, the prosecuting lawyers and Judge Merchan are all guilty of fraud, lying to the jury, made up evidence, deceit, corruption, and conspiracy.
Look for LeMahieu to be in starting lineup tonight.
Lets go Yankees
As of this moment the Yankees are the only MLB that has not posted a lineup for today. 30 teams, one game rained out, leaves 28 teams, 27 lineups posted, Yankees not yet.
How about that, as Mel Allen would say. Lineup up now.
Todays Yankee lineup
Nestor Cortes LHP
A Volpe (R) SS
J Soto (L) RF
A Judge (R) CF
A Verdugo (L) LF
G Stanton (R) DH
A Rizzo (L) 1B
G Torres (R) 2B
A Wells (L) C
D LeMahieu (R) 3B
If LeMahieu plays 2B and Cabrera plays 3B with Torres riding the pine, Yanks would have a better offense and defense.
I wonder what took so long to post lineup. Unless it was to see how LeMahieu felt and responded after infield and batting practice.
Soto first inning home run. 1-0.
Yanks down 2-1 after 3.
Yankees lead 3-2 thru five innings.
Steve Fischer, typical liberal democrat operandi. Corruption and conspiracy at every level. Do whatever it takes to hurt every and any honest American.
Final. Yankees lose 4-3. Error costs game combined in no production when it mattered most. Cortes goes 5 1/3 innings allowing 2 runs and leaves leading 3-2. Kahnle 2/3 innings 0 runs. Weaver 1 2/3 innings 2 runs neither earned because of Rizzo error, and takes the loss. Holmes 1/3 inning and fails when it mattered most giving up the game losing hit earning a blown save.
Uninspired play by Yankees cost game and lose first game in series.
Yankees lose game one of three game Angel series 4-3. Low-lights of game, Rizzo error allowing two unearned runs. Torres thrown out at home plate. Holmes blown save giving up game losing run with a major failure to get one out when it mattered most.
This was a very bad loss to a very bad team. No excuses accepted.
